Definitions

  • the invention relates to a signal display element for the display of more than two informations for signal displays with electromagnetically excited tilting plates, having a baseplate, tilting plates supported in bearings on the base plate, each provided with at least one magnetic part and the magnetic axes of the magnetic parts are normal to the plane of the tilting plates, furtheron, bipolarly excitable electromagnets are contained which are well suitable for the control of the tilting plates and are arranged on the ends of the electromagnet core facing the baseplate guide plates being preferably parallel with the baseplate.
  • signal display elements for the visual display of numbers, signals, symbols used to be applied, as e.g. that according to the Hungarian Patent HU-A-157 250, which are provided with plates having magnetic parts and to be tilted by electromagnetic control and in such a manner that under the influence of the tilting motion one or the other face of the plates becomes visible; the plates can be tilted around a lateral edge or another edge being parallel with the lateral edge; the two surfaces of the tilting plates are carrying different informations, e.g. they are differently coloured, while the part of the baseplate which became visible, carries an identical information, that means, that it has the same colour as the surface of the tilting plate which became visible.
  • the tilting plates are made - at least partly - of a permanent magnetic material, and the magnetic axis thereof runs preferably perpendicular to the plane of the tilting plates. Accordingly, by the application of said signal display element two different informations can be displayed.
  • the thickness of the single tilting plates is determined by necessary thickness (the required magnetic energy content) of the magnets with a magnetic axis being advantageously normal to the plane of the tilting plates.
  • the latter solution containing more tilting plates requires as many field coils as the number of the tilting plates contained in the signal display element.
  • the invention is based on the recognition, in so far as by the properly coded control of the field coils, in particular, if a plurality of tilting plates are applied in one signal display element, the number of the field coils can be considerably less than the number of the tilting plates.
  • the essence of the invention lies in that the guide plates belonging to one signal display element are arranged with an axial displacement, that the magnetic parts are displaced axially in relation to one another, and that the number of the tilting plates is larger by one, than the number of the guide plates, however, it is less at least by one than power of two with an exponent corresponding to the number of the electromagnet cores.
  • the tilting plates 3 are supported in bearings 2 in a rotatable manner.
  • the magnetic parts 4 are arranged, which are displaced in relation to each other in direction of the axis of rotation of the tilting plates 3, the magnetic axes of said magnetic parts are normal to the plane of the tilting plates 3.
  • bipolarly excitable electromagnets are arranged, which are well suitable for the control of the tilting plates 3, while on the end of the cores of the electromagnets 5 facing the baseplate the guide plates 6 - being preferably parallel with the baseplate 1 - are arranged.
  • the cores of the electromagnet 5 field coils 7 are to be found.
  • Figure 2 shows the view of the tilting plates according to figure 1, being parallel with the baseplate 1 and normal to the axis of the tilting plates 3; on the bottom of the figure change of the polarity of the guide plates 6 is to be seen, in the single phases of turning the tilting plates 3 from one stable condition into the other stable condition.
  • two tilting plates 3 each belong to the two extreme guide plates 6, while a separate tilting plate 3 is ordered to the central guide plate 6, in such a manner the number of the guide plates amounts to three.
  • the central tilting plate 3 is ordered to the central guide plate 6, however, not the adjacent tilting plates 3 are ordered to the extreme guide plates 6.
  • the magnetic parts on the tilting plates 3 are arranged so, that
  • the five tilting plates 3 are indicated one after the other with the indices a, b, c, d, e, while the guide plates 6 are indicated with the indices A, B and C.
  • the polarity of the magnetic parts 4 is illustrated, too, while direction of the excited polarities are indicated below each other for the different arrangements of the tilting plates 3 (when "turning the pages").
  • the guide plate 6A is magnetically connected to the tilting plates 3a and 3 d , the guide plate 6 B to the tilting plate 3 e and the guide plate 6 c to the tilting plates 3 b and 3 c .
  • the guide plate 6A has a north-polarity, while the guide plates 6 B and 6 c have south-polarities.
  • the topmost tilting plate 3 r can be tilted so, if the polarity of the guide plate 6 staying in a magnetic relation therewith is changed. Now the guide plate 6 c has a north-polarity, accordingly it repulses the tilting plate 3 c , while the other tilting plate 3 c staying in a magnetic connection with the guide plate 6 c will be attracted.
  • the guide plate 6A For tilting the next tilting plate 3 d the guide plate 6A being magnetically connected thereto is to be repolarized. Accordingly, the guide plate 6A will be south-polarized, simultaneously the other tilting plate 3a connected to the guide plate 6A becomes attracted.
  • the central tilting plate 3 e is tilted by reversing the polarity of the guide plate 6 B staying in a magnetic correction therewith.
  • the last tilting plate 3a is tilted so, that the polarity of the guiding plate 6A being in magnetic contact therewith is reversed.
  • the tilting plate 3 d - the second from the bottom - is repulsed on the other side.
  • this repulsion cannot come to force, as the tilting of the tilting plate 3a keeps the number of the tilting plates 3 in prevalence.
  • Figure 3 illustrates an embodiment, with which the number of the field coils 7 is by one less, than the number of the guide plate 6 respectively the number of the electromagnetic cores 5 belonging to the guide plates 6.
  • This can be achieved ⁇ in sense of the example here described ⁇ in such a manner that the cores 5 or at least a part of the cores 5 are overbridged by a coupling member 8 to be fitted closely to the cores 5, made of a soft magnetic material and ensuring the division of the magnetic core at the end of the cores 5 lying opposite to the baseplate 1.
  • the cores 5 are made of a hard magnetic material with repolarisable remanant magnetic induction.
  • Guide plates 6 may be prepared of a soft magnetic material, while a soft magnetic material can be used for the cores 5 too, if they are not overbridged by the coupling member 8.
  • the invention is not at all restricted to the solutions according to the examples, but they extend to all the solutions contained in the claim, in particular in the main claim.
